When Victor Dinaire first set foot in the club scene, he was unaware
that what he just discovered would become his life's passion. Although
he "was always into music as a kid," his excitement for dance music
began in the early 90's, when he began throwing parties at New York
City clubbing meccas Limelight, the Tunnel, and the Palladium. "It was
great working for three nightclubs because I got a taste of multiple
different scenes."

Driven by his desire to successfully break into the dance music
industry, Victor increased his intensity by working Wednesdays through
Saturdays at the clubs and spending the remainder of the week
'flyering' the city and organizing events. He submerged himself in the
atmosphere, always watching and listening for what pleased the crowd
most. "While the crowd was dancing and having a great time, I always
observed the people's reactions to the way DJs worked them." Victor
especially loved to watch legendary DJ Junior Vasquez during his late
nights at the Tunnel, "it was from him that I learned to work a crowd
by manipulating key records live and setting dramatic sequences."

Victor took on the world of dance music full-force. His interest in
electronic music landed him a gig at BMG/Logic Records in 1999, where
he did promotion for artists such as Giorgio Moroder, Gloria Gaynor,
Danny Howells and La Bouche. In addition to excelling as a promoter,
multi-talented Victor was also asked to perform on the Logic label,
ultimately kicking off his own career as an artist.

Victor’s landmark first CD compilation, Logic Trance Volume 4,
delivered a truly noteworthy beginning as a performer, hitting the top
5 position for three consecutive weeks on the CMJ charts and
subsequently selling out. Victor's following CD compilations, "En
Trance" on Bonzai Music Italy / Megahit US and Timeless Trance
classics: Midnight Sessions, followed shortly thereafter by Morning
Sessions, were all also sold-out successes. Victor credits Maiko Sakai
for his success with the Timeless Trance series. "She was 100% behind
the series and fought for the tracks I really thought are ‘Timeless.’
It was a great experience to work with her and learn how to put a
compilation series together from scratch and promote it the best way we
could."

This New York City native steadily set a firm foundation for his
reputation in some of the biggest clubs in New York, across the States
and internationally. As a regular at New York City's famed Arc NYC
nightclub, Victor gained a devoted following, with the crowd eagerly
anticipating his regular closing sets as much as the headliners. From
New York to South Korea, Victor has performed for events such as
Spundae, Gatecrasher and Godskitchen, and with esteemed artists such as
Paul Oakenfold, Ferry Corsten, Blank & Jones, Steve Porter, Junior
Vasquez, John 00 Fleming, Sandra Collins, Nu NRG, Johan Gielen, Second
Sun, Judge Jules and Matt Darey.

Recognizing a demand for easy access to trance music, Victor teamed
up with Sirius Satellite Radio to create his famous weekly radio show,
Peak Hour. Seeing an opportunity to reach a larger audience, he
partnered with Music Choice, showcasing live sets and mixes on his show
Resident Nation. Feeling frustrated by a repetitive vibe coming from
urban dance culture, ever the innovator, Victor formed Future
Progression, "a lifestyle group dedicated to the electronic dance
movement." His popular Future Progression loft parties in Brooklyn led
to a show of the same moniker on XM Satellite Radio.

In his most recent project, Victor partnered up with St. Michael and
Kristina Sky in the creation of Lost Episode, a movement that uses all
available forms of media on a mission to take electronic music to the
level that more mainstream genres entertain. His radio show,
re-launched as Lost Episode with Victor Dinaire, airs on XM Satellite
Radio, Worldspace Satellite Radio, Music Choice TV, and internet radio
websites AOL Radio, ETN.fm and Digitally Imported (Di.fm), and is
syndicated on fifteen FM stations across the US, including Energy
Arizona FM and San Diego. Victor's radio shows reach well over 60
million homes and cars nationwide, more than any other DJ in North
America. Lost Episode also has monthly Club Nights at two of Southern
California's hottest nightspots, Avalon in Hollywood and 4th and B in
San Diego, featuring world renowned talent, such as the legendary Paul
Oakenfold, Ferry Corsten and Blank & Jones. As far as Victor's
taste in music, "I love emotional music-something that can be felt. I
love to give people a feeling like they have been to a million places
when they hear me."
